Information on the degree structure change

Aalto University School of Business offers programmes leading to lower (Bachelor’s degree) and higher (Master’s degree) university degrees as well as academic postgraduate degrees, i.e. licentiate and doctoral degrees. University degrees are two-tiered: first, students complete a lower university degree, after which they can carry on to study for a higher university degree.

According to the degree regulations 2005, Bachelor’s degree can be completed in Finnish or English. Master’s programmes are offered mainly in English.

In August 2013 the new degree regulations for Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees were introduced in the School of Business. Students who have started studying before August 1st 2013 have the right to complete their degree according to the 2005 degree regulations until July 31st 2016 or transfer to study according to the 2013 degree regulations. Information on the new degree structure and instructions on how to transfer to study according to the new degree regulations 2013 can be found in Into and Study Guide (DR 2013).

Students, who have started their studies before the academic year 2014-2015, can study according to the degree requirements from the year of enrolment or follow any of the later requirements. Study Guides from previous years can be found in Into.
